Giving the Mets a run for their money.

We are absolutely terrible. In all sports this season. Somehow we are worse in baseball than basketball.

It’s hilarious.

Spend with the best and you’ll come out on top about 50% of the time.

That’s been our experience.

Money doesn't matter when you spend it on shite players or have coaches that forgot how to coach.

But they spent enough over the years to have 8 nattys. How many does bama have?

Don't you know.... bama fans only care about football and MBB, in that order.

When bama fans talk thrash about other schools and other sports... it's done just to stir shite.

Probably not as much as others. LSU baseball is what Bama has been to CFB. You go there because they churn out MLB players every year and you are all but guaranteed to win a NC if you stick around for four years. This is just a bad team. Talent there but they don’t play like a team at all.

I don’t think LSU spent as much this year. They put more NIL in football. 2 transfer classes ranked #1. But they have more talent than they’ve shown. Not sure why.

They got a lot of guys from the portal who had produced at lower levels offensively, and literally none of them have made that step up. They're also defensive liabilities.

We were also counting on two freshmen from last year to be part of the weekend rotation and that's been a mixed bag, and the Saturday starter was a transfer who was decent, but is now out for the year.

Arrambide has been a good bat but is a pretty bad catcher. The only good players on this team consistently have been Curiel, Milam, and Jake Brown.

And now Brown is out for the year. Serna and Braun have started playing well but both are freshmen so they're just really hitting their stride.

So my assessment is basically that everything that could go wrong, has.

Too much... probably more than 2023 and 2025 and we definitely won't be finishing the season with a CWS title like those years.

Bad seasons happen to every great coach in the modern era. Brian O’Conner didn’t even make the NCAA tournament last season at Virginia. I’m sure state fans would agree he’s a good coach.

O’Sullivan at Florida is a great coach and they’ve been inconsistent for years.


Money is not an excuse for this season. We missed badly on some evaluations. Jay will fix it but still painful given how bad football and basketball were.


However, LSU spending “most” of its NIL is untrue. Our men’s basketball budget is 15 for this offseason alone.

That is a great assessment. I just keep watching where early and halfway through the games you have opponents in a corner. But go cold at the plate and start serving up HR balls. Feels like the talent is there. The Sunday game we played you had us beat. Baseball is frustrating to begin with.

Not sure what Pete Golding has to do with LSU baseball but I realize all fanbases has retards for fans. Sad but we all deal with it.

This about sums it up. I’m not so delusional as to expect another nc team. But damn sure didn't expect to be most likely missing the post season.

I feel like there is enough talent to at least make the field of 64! And you are right - they don’t play like a team at all. Guess that’s one of the challenges of the era of the portal ( along with accurate analysis) - you get a bunch of new faces in the clubhouse and try to mold them into a team in what - half a year?

You got a bunch of fr mixed with a bunch of upperclassmen transfers - good luck with that veteran leadership.
